PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Raven Harris (ranked 6 p4p, 13 weight class) and Danny Danger (ranked 2 p4p, 3 weight class). Harris comes to the cage accompanied by The Assassin. The crowd seem to be enjoying Danger's choice of entrance music: Wham! - Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go. These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
